"This is crazy. A few boos, a few cheers but it's been a good crowd,"
"Big shout out to Ryan. He's done amazing this tournament. He can be proud."
"To win this kind of game, Gary threw everything at me. His finishing and scoring was great. I withstood it. Of course, the crowd was a bit against me but it's fair play because Gary is such a fantastic human-being, such a fantastic darts player. I'm so happy."
Luke Littler produced a stunning 105.35 average and came within seven darts of a perfect nine-darter in a dominant semi-final performance. Littler acknowledged a mixed crowd and praised opponent Ryan for his tournament showing. The other semi-final saw Gary Anderson face Gian van Veen in a high-quality match featuring averages over 102, two 170 finishes, and 25 180s. Commentator reaction labeled van Veen’s win as dreamlike, and van Veen praised Anderson while noting the crowd was partly against him. Littler and van Veen have each secured at least £400,000, with the winner to receive £1,000,000.
